Iran has strengthened its defense capabilities by expanding its Ghadir radar system, which is designed to detect incoming missiles or drone attacks.
By positioning these radars in strategic locations — including the country’s northwest and along the Persian Gulf — Iran is preparing for the possibility of attacks from the United States or Israel.
"The system can stand well against electronic warfare and has a minimal chance of being detected or destroyed by anti-radar missiles," said Brigadier General Farzad Esmaili of Iran’s military.
This military buildup comes amid soaring tensions between Washington and Tehran over the nuclear deal.
Former U.S. President Donald Trump recently threatened to "bomb" the Middle Eastern country if it refused to negotiate a new nuclear agreement.
While Iran has not ruled out talks altogether, it has made clear that it does not wish to negotiate directly with the United States.
